I'm 30. I've always been very precocious so I know what I am talking about.

It totally depends on who is rejecting you. So sorry about your child LilacTree.

You don't sound precocious.  Not from the posts I've read.  Maybe I missed the ones that would give me a different view.

I don't think it totally depends on who is rejecting you.  Of course it will be more difficult if the rejection comes from someone who you have an emotional investment in but that's just the degree.  The bottom line is you have to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, hold your head high, and move on.   Any insight you might gain from the experience is growth.

Hello, JBKO.

Everyone's different on how they handle rejection. I guess the best advice is to take it one day at a time and try your best in a way that works well for you.

And not trying to be mean to you or tell you what to do........but it may be for the best to not post meaningful threads in the Community Chat sub-forum on this board. People will always think you're up to something and over-anylyze every post.

Depends on who is doing the rejecting.  I'll put it this way.  If it's someone who dislikes me anyway, I couldn't care less.

On the other hand, I have a child who has rejected me and that is devastating.

Did she reject you, or did you place yourself between the two daughters and take one's side over the other?

Adult siblings are able to and should be allowed to solve their own problems.

You just don't understand that you rejected your daughter, in a sense, when you chose sides.

I hope you can realize that one day, for both your sakes.......

I have indeed been rejected quite a few times in my life and I just figure it's their loss. I never was devastated by romantic rejection, but when people I thought were my friends rejected me it was really hurtful. Of course I got over it, but good friends are hard to come by and as a result of it I'm very careful who I get close to.

I know what you mean NC Bandwagon but I figure I will keep posting as long as I follow the guidelines and have good intentions. I'm actually getting over the posters here who reject me lol.

I thought I saw a few more posts on this thread.  Certainly, nothing poofworthy IMO.  I was going to respond to one of them but I don't remember the poster's name.  Oh well - tomorrow is another day.

Every single person on earth will be rejected at some point or another in their lives. I would always remember that when you are feeling low and remember that no one avoids that throughout life. Whether it be a job, a love, a friend, etc... it is unavoidable.

HOw so @JBKO? In all the posts I have read of yours and even you yourself have said this on occasion, you seem like you have developed slower than the average 30 yr old. I am not saying that as a put down, not at all. I have just never read anything you have written that indicate that at all.
